Interesting read...and interesting opinions.

It's almost like a politician writing this article, covering both sides.

mikeSS · 06-23-2011, 09:44 PM

the convertible takes away so much of the 370z looks.

themann1984 · 06-23-2011, 09:52 PM

I love the shutter and the ka-chunk! The 370Z is pure sex! It is hot, loud, and rough!

christian370z · 06-23-2011, 10:19 PM

I thought their little catch line of "staying the coarse" was nice, most of what was said has been said before but it is nice to see a new review regardless. I can't say I am a fan of the convertible though.

I think what they are basically saying is that it has a few things that annoy them, but overall they loved it.

Fire · 06-24-2011, 06:29 AM

Verts are awesome and with the right parts look it.

Does not.

For some reason, the Verts look 10X better in person than in pics. I have no idea why.

Fire · 06-25-2011, 08:06 AM

Lug they are 10x better looking inperson. 20x better from the drivers seat

30x better modded LOL

red6spd · 06-25-2011, 08:23 AM

The part about the guy asking him if he likes it made me feel all warm inside LOL. I would have to agree after hanging out with the Mid-A guys the convert looks alot better in person Steve and Kirk's verts look like pure sex. I dont think they needed to mention the new stang being "faster" cause we all know none of us would ever go from a Z to a stang, thats just barbaric.

dirtrat · 06-25-2011, 07:09 PM

I love my Z but IMHO the convertable looks like crap!

Hambone1 · 06-25-2011, 09:23 PM

I will say I was not a fan of the vert from the pictures I had seen, however I've seen the convertible in red and white in the wild and they don't look half bad. Still prefer the coupe, but not disastrous as I previously thought
